  • While updating phone got stuck in recovery loop

    This morining i wanted to update my iphone 4 to iOs 7.1.1
    It started and the 'veryfing' sing came up. the phone then shut down and the screen 'connect to itunes' came up and nothing else happened. So i found out that my phone got stuck in the recovery loop. During the day i tried different ways to get out of that mode. By now the phone wont even connect to itunes.
    What can i do?

    Hi 11Tiana22,
    If you are having issues with an iPhone that is currently stuck in Recovery mode, you may find the following article helpful, in particular Step 5 if your iPhone isn't showing up in iTunes:

  • I cannot sign on to sync to get my passwords and bookmarks back after update of FF... Please help

    A few weeks ago my FF browser updated to 29.0.1 and since then I can no longer access my saved password file or bookmarks. This is extremely frustrating and I have tried everything I could figure out to try, even used my back - up to reload from a previous date with no luck. Then FF reloaded the new version again. Here is my problem. I have other devices, (Smartphone, Android tablet) that both use FF mobile on them and they have my bookmarks still. I think if I could retrieve my sync account, I could get this all back, only problem is, I have not had to use that password in years along with changing my ISP a few years back, so it does not even recognize my e-mail address. FF apparently has no phone support or at least I cannot find it and I would like to straighten this out with them. I tried reaching them on Facebook with no reply. I just don't know what to do any more and need those passwords and bookmarks ......
    PLEASE HELP ME..............................! ! ! ! !

    hello, firefox 29 has introduced a new sync system which isn't compatible with accounts set up in prior versions.
    # in this case you'd probably have to use a workaround and first download the prior firefox 28 version and disable automatic updating for the moment (in options > advanced > update): [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
    #on your android device go into the system's ''settings'' app and into ''accounts & synchronisation'' (might be worded slightly different on various android devices), go to firefox sync & tap on pair a device.
    #on your desktop go to ''firefox > options > sync > set up firefox sync > i have an account'' which will show you a 3x4 character code that you'll have to enter into your android device in order to complete the process.
    #after you have successfully restored your data this way you can upgrade to firefox 29 and probably also switch to the new sync system on all of your devices: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

  • Iphone 4 Stuck in Recovery, Please help

    Hey guys, I keep trying to restore my iphone 4 but it never completes, it just keeps flashing up:
    the iphone "iphone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).
    And i cannot get out of recovery mode now!
    Please help i don't know how i can get out of it, I have made a genius bar appointment but the first available time is Sunday
    I have tried all sorts of things, putting it into dfu mode, general recovery mode, uninstalled itunes, reinstalled itunes, tried it on my mac and pc.
    Everything i can think of but it just wont start
    Thanks
    Craig

    Ok lets try this on your Mac:
    Find and delete any and all .ipsw files on your Mac, there should only be one, but delete ALL that you find. It should be located here:
    ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
    Once that's done, reboot your Mac & launch itunes then, see if you can force the phone into recovery mode, reset first as I described earlier:
    Turn your phone off(if you can), if not try to reset: Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release. Then, leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select "new".

  • I`m unable to use my Iphone 4S after updating it to the latest software,PLEASE HELP

    It was supposed to update my phone to the latest software but has since stopped working all together and only showing the USB connection and Itunes logo on the black screen when I connect the phone to my computer and it`s been like that for the past 4 hours.I can`t access the phone content,it goes off completely once I disconnect it from my computer;I`m seriously sick and tired of all this software update issues,please help me sort it out.

    I talked with Apple support they tried having me restart my comp and reinstall intunes. Which did not work and he basically said that I would need to go the apple store and probably have to get a new phone. Thank god I backed everything up first.

    My iphone 4s is in recovery mode because it failed to update to the new iOS for some reason. I have no option but to restore my iphone but I will lose all my media. I cant do that! What should I do? My iphone isnt jailbroken

    Use Sharepod to get the music off of your phone and use Ifunebox to get everything else off of your phone such as contacts, pictures, and apps.

    If you're confused on how to use either of these, just look up tutorials on how to use them on youtube.

  • My phone is stuck on recovery mode help!!!!

    so i was updating to ios 7.1.2 on my computer then it was updating then out of no where it got stuck updating it wouldn't do anything the bar was stuck so Ithought why not restarted then it says connect to itunes with lightning cable so I did then nothing itunes don't react ot tell me to restore i did there steps in apples website when stuck but my computer just doesn't react and I know it ain't my computer or cable is because It was just working 30 minutes ago and it recongnized it until this incident plus if i leave it plug for a while it shows an error (0xE8000065) help please!?!?!?

    If you followed the instructions exactly as in HT1808 without success, the only thing left to try is the DFU mode:
    Power down the iPhone and disconnect from the computer.  Start iTunes on the computer and connect the USB end of the cable.
    Hold the power button on the iPhone and connect the other end of the cable, keep holding the power button for three seconds and then press and old the home button also.  Hold both buttons for ten seconds and then release the power button and continue to hold the power button for an additional twenty seconds.  Then release.
    You could not be in DFU mode and iTunes should see the iPhone.

  • I lost all my text messages after updating to iOS6... PLEASE HELP!!

    I just upgraded to iOS6 on my iPhone 4 and all my text messages are gone. I always do a backup before any major OS update. Everything is there (Pictures, Contacts, Voicemail, etc.) except for my text messages. After searching around, it seems like a bug that many people are experiencing. I have still yet to find a fix? Anyone able to get them back?

    I dont think there is a fix available.

  • My phone is stuck in recovery mode, and iTunes will only let me restore to factory settings.  My question: Can I restore from iTunes backup after restoring to factory settings?

    I attempted to update to iOS 8 and now my phone is stuck in recovery mode, and iTunes will only let me restore to factory settings.  My question: Can I restore from iTunes backup after restoring to factory settings?

    Hi, kformagg
    I would say yes. I once had the same problem (iPhone 5, IOS 7) and first restored to factory settings and after that from iCloud backup.
    It worked very well.

  • HT201263 My iPhone 4 started to update but got stuck in recovery mode. I've tried everything anyone on the website has told me to do, but nothing has worked. Is there anything I can do? I need my phone

    My iPhone 4 started to update but got stuck in recovery mode. I've tried everything anyone on the website has told me to do, but nothing has worked. When you go to turn it on, it shows the Apple symbol,  then it goes to the connect to iTunes screen. When I do that, it just says error with the code 9006. I've followed what the Apple site has said to do for it, but the phone is still is the same  state. Is there anything I can do? I need my phone back as soon as possible.

    Hello Hester Emily,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you're experiencing after this update process.  I found the following article that has more information on the iTunes error code 9006:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Configure your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, or 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
    Take care,
    Alex H.

    I should add that this has never been Jailbroken. I keep reading that a lot of times this is the case for a jail broken phone.
    I have also gone through the not very helpfull steps on apples site to fix this.. It is not a security issue since i dont have an antivirus or any 3rd party software for my computer.
